Cranberry bread

From Ars Cookbook

karinne's holiday favorite cranberry bread

Sift together into medium sized bowl-

2 cups white flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup white granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt

Combine in large bowl-

1 beaten egg
1/4 cup butter, melted or very very soft
2/3 cup milk (2% or whole)
1 cup cranberries, fresh
optional- 1 cup chopped nuts (I use walnuts)

Add the sifted-together dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix with wooden spoon.
Don't use electric mixer, you don't want to burst or cut up the cranberries.

Bake in greased and floured loaf pan at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes.

This recipe makes one loaf, and it doubles, triples, and quadruples well.
